• School-wide Positive Behavior Support:
Implementers’ Blueprint and Self-Assessment
• Evaluation Blueprint for School-Wide Positive
Behavior Support
• Blueprint for School-wide Positive Behavior
Support Training and Professional
Development
Starting Point….
• Educators cannot “make” students learn
or behave
• Educators can create environments to
increase the likelihood students learn and
behave
• Environments that increase the likelihood
are guided by a core curriculum and
implemented with consistency and fidelity
The Challenge
• The “core curriculum” is often “punishment”
to try and reduce problem behavior in school
• However, “punishing” problem behaviors
(without a proactive support system) is
associated with increases in (a) aggression, (b)
vandalism, (c) truancy, and (d) dropping out.
(Mayer, 1995, Mayer & Sulzar-Azaroff, 1991, Skiba & Peterson, 1999)
The Good News…
Research reviews continue to indicate
that effective responses to significant
behavioral challenges in school
include:
• Social Skills Training
• Academic Restructuring
• Behavioral Interventions
= instructional strategies - “teaching”
School-wide Positive Behavior Support
SWPBS is a broad range of systemic
and individualized strategies for
achieving important social and
learning outcomes while preventing
problem behavior
OSEP Center on PBIS
SWPBS is not...
• Not specific practice or curriculum…it’s a
general approach to preventing problem
behavior
• Not limited to any particular group of
students…it’s for all students
• Not new…its based on long history of
behavioral practices & effective instructional
design & strategies
School-wide Positive Behavior Support
• Problem solving framework
• Systematic implementation of evidence-based
practices
• Layers in increasingly more intensive
environmental supports to increase the
likelihood students learn and behave
